    About Me

    I am a recovered alcoholic of 3.5 years sobriety. I work in care, looking after people with learning difficulties, and have written a book on my addiction and recovery. I believe God came to my aid when I asked Him whilst I was in rehab. I play guitar, and chess (badly), enjoy cooking (even worse than my chess). I wouldeventually like to work with people who have drug and alcohol problems.

    Interests

    Chess (online mainly), Guitar, Leonard Cohen, Bob Dylan, Ralph McTell, Eating chocolate.
